This super easy and delicious paleo keto bread is made with all clean ingredients with only 2 grams of net carbs! Such a healthy way to enjoy bread without spiking up your blood sugar.
If you follow me on Instagram, you know I love my toasts in all forms, especially avocado toasts. I usually just buy gluten free bread because they are easy and convenient, but lately, I’ve been sticking to a lower carb diet because I feel so much better that way. So, in order to keep my toast habit going, I decided to make my own paleo keto bread, and I’ve been loving it!
Yummy Paleo Keto Bread Recipe
This paleo keto bread loaf recipe is so easy and so fluffy. The prep time is so quick, because all you have to do is mix the ingredients together before pouring the batter into the baking pan before throwing it in the oven.
The base is made with low carb almond flour, and I just love how the texture is so much like actual bread! It’ll definitely fulfill your bread cravings without spiking up your blood sugar, whether you eat it alone or top it with your favorite spread and/or toppings.
Using the Correct Psyllium Husk
This paleo keto bread recipe uses psyllium husk powder to help with the bread-y texture. It’s actually quite easy to find these days, especially if you search online. However, not all psyllium husk powders are the same. Some of them, when baked, actually imparts a bluish-purple color to the baked good which can be quite off-putting.
I found that this psyllium husk powder is high quality, works well, and doesn’t change the color of my bread, and I’ve baked with it several times now. However, if you have another brand already on hand and the purple color doesn’t bother you, feel free to use it in this recipe because it won’t affect the flavor at all!
What to Expect With This Paleo Keto Bread
Just like most grain free breads, this bread will not rise like a regular, flour bread. Yes, it will rise some, but don’t expect it to double in size. Feel free to double the recipe and use the same sized pan if you want a true loaf-sized bread. You may need to adjust the baking time accordingly.
Also, this bread will be light and airy, and not hardy and crusty. I love toasting each slice before serving to give it a little more texture, then topping with mashed avocados or cream cheese.
It’s such a great way to enjoy bread on a low carb diet, so I hope you enjoy!

Do I melt the ghee before or after I measure it? Love your recipes and book.
Yes, melt the ghee first and then measure it out! Thank you!!
Great recipe! This bread was fast and easy to make and I really appreciate the quality ingredients in it. I used slices for both toast and french toast, and was delighted with both the flavor and texture each time!! I will definitely make this recipe again 🙂
So glad you liked it!! Thanks so much!!
I love this recipe! Sometimes I just want a sandwich for lunch and this recipe works. (One time I got lazy and didn’t line the loaf pan with parchment paper. Bad Idea. This step is necessary if if you want to remove the bread from the pan without a struggle!)
I’m in the process of making this recipe as I’m writing this. My dough turned out thick (too thick to pour out… I had to scoop it out and put it in the bread pan with a spatula. Is this normal? When I read in your notes to “pour the dough into the prepared pan” I started second guessing if something was wrong with my dough. It’s already in the oven, so I’ll see how it turns out. Crossing fingers and thank you for the recipe!
I’m so sorry that I didn’t see this earlier! How did it turn out?
WOW! Sooo goooooddd! I ate 1/2 the loaf in 24 hours LOL so I put the other half in the freezer. I took a slice out, heated it up for ab 30 seconds & mmmm still so good!
The only thing I did differently was I used lemon juice because I have a yeast sensitivity and cannot use vinegar. Am also battling yeast overgrowth so the lower starch content was appealing. Delicious, thank you for sharing!
Yay! So glad you enjoyed it, and that the lemon juice worked! Thanks so much for leaving a review.
As I’m vegan and keto I used applesauce for the eggs and Flax for the psyllium husks…jst took the bread out of the oven cant wait to make more and Freese them…Thank you…
Just made my first loaf. This recipe is great! I did not have flaxseed meal, however, Google suggested chia seeds. It worked great! This will be a regular rotation.. So nice to have a gluten free keto option for a day where I really want toast!
Thank you so much!! So glad you liked it!
This bread is so delicious! This is my second time making it and it turned out great again! I will slice the loaf and freeze it. Super easy to pull out a slice (or two!) when I need it! Thank you!
Yay! I’m so glad you enjoyed it!
Hi Jean, I just wanted to say thank you so much for posting recipes, I found your website when searching for PAlio Keto bread and your recipe is absolutely brilliant!! I was making linseed bread before, but it was always a little hit and miss. Yours with the almond and physillium husk powder is just perfect every time. I make it with 50/50 linseed & almond but it is still Marvellous. And sticks together so well so easy to slice. I’ve got two young girls and they grew up next to an amazing lady called Dr Sarah Myhill ( https://drmyhill.co.uk )who on meeting and struggling to conceive I went Pk and have never looked back since bringing both the girls up in the same way. I totally believe in it and it has been incredible for their sleeping. No ups and downs from
Sugar and carbs and unbelievable consistent sleeps. This bread is a super fibre for them and great for picnics as we head into the season! Thanks again.
Thank you so much! I’m so glad you enjoyed it!!
Great recipe! Next time I wanted to double the recipe. How long should it cook? Thanks!
This bread is a game changer for me! I’ve made this twice and the second time I double batched in order to get bigger slices. I did have to adjust the baking time like Jean said( about 15-20 minutes) but, the bread turned out great! I used my electric slicer and sliced it 1/4 inch slices. I’ve been toasting it and packing lunches. Thanks so much for this recipe!
Thanks so much for leaving a review, Susan! So glad you were able to enjoy it with the adjustments and appreciate you sharing your results.
